I’m just going to drop this here and walk away…
Saw this earlier. We really do live in the stupidest freaking timeline.
Next stop: Thunderdome!
I’m curious to see if some of the existing World Records from ‘clean’ athletes will stand.
It will also be interesting to see which athletes will make a ‘transition’ to this enhanced games and perform exactly the same as they had in other tested environments, suggesting they have been enhanced the entire time.
It will be interesting to see which companies decide to associate with this event from a sponsorship perspective. I expect a lot of influencer owned supplement brands to come out of nowhere and claim these athletes are taking some creatine blend that results in 20lb of lean muscle mass in a season.
I mean it could be something for older athletes. Before retiring you step away, start ‘enhancing’ and suddenly you get back to your best from your prime years or even beat that? No better way of showing you weren’t cheating beforehand.
I’m guessing it’s gonna be like when the XFL was launched in 2001. Lots of hype and a number of viewers initially as people will be curious. Then it will tank
Not necessarily. It may be what the take, for the duration they take it, doesn’t enhance them. We all know the effect of drugs are very dependent on genetics, some hsve large responses, some don’t, with many in the middle.
